Default what alternator do i have?

I broke the terminal bolt on my alternator and i'm not sure what kind of alternator i have. I'm pretty sure it is the stock one, if not they guy I bought it from used motocraft for everthing so anything thoughts on what it is or where i can find a new terminal. I had it rigged up so it would work with some O-connections and some 4 gauge wire (work well for about 4k miles and i forgot about it), but tonight it gave out on me and almost left me stranded with a dead battery.

The brand shouldnt really matter... I'd buy another Ford one, but they do get expensive. Any brand will work but aftermarket ones tend to not last as long
